The AX24 Converter System is Musical, Correct, and Flexible. AX24 allows you to config the number of line and Mic channels that you need at the sample rate currently used. 8 Ch. DA
Fully modular - 224 different configurations
AX24 allows you to buy the number of Line and Mic channels that you need at the sample rate currently used. Analogue in and output channels can be expanded in pairs of two. Especially configurations like 2 or 4 analogue input channels and 6 analogue output channels are very suitable for mastering or multi track productions where only few analogue input channels are used simultaneously but monitoring in 5.1 is essential.
From 2 to 8 analogue Line or Mic input channels
AX24 offers free choice of analogue Line and Mic input channels and can be upgraded from 2 up to 8 channels in pairs of two. For example, configurations like 2 Line and 2 Mic, 4 Line and 2 Mic or 4 Mic and 2 Line mean that your money is spent on the channels you need and not on 4 or 6 channels rarely used. Still, due to its modular and upgradable structure AX24 ensures that you can expand your AX24 when it is required. AX24 can be delivered as an A/D converter only.
From 2 to 8 analogue output channels
Only analogue based studios need symmetrical in and outputs. AX24 offers them in the highest possible quality in its 8 analogue out configurations. But other studios working digitally rarely need that many output channels. AX24 offers stereo and 5.1 analogue output configurations allowing you to save money normally spent on the rarely used channels 7-8. AX24 can be delivered as a D/A converter only.
Converter controls can be integrated in you DAW or Console
AX24 is fully remote controlled via USB or Ethernet offering full integration of its controls on the channel strip in DAW's including ProTools and many analouge and digital consoles, among others Euphonix via the EuCon Protocol.
Superb sound quality
Due to the high quality electronic design featuring low jitter and low noise circuitry, the converted analogue and digital signal of AX24 delivers a clean and powerful analogue sound.
Connection to Audio Workstations
AX24 can be configured with AES/EBU, SDIF3, MADI or Pro Tools Digital I/O cards. When using the PHD I/O card there are two DigiLink interfaces for connection directly to the Pro Tools DSP cards. The AX24 will appear in Pro Tools as a 192 I/O with 8 analog input channels and 8 analog output channels. Up to four AX24 units can be connected to one DigiLink providing a total of 32 I/O channels at 192 kHz sampling frequency.
Remote Control
AX24 is remote controlled via a RS-422/USB connection from a Windows or MAC OSX PC running the DADman control software. DADman can be automated by other applications via MIDI control or the Euphonix EuCon protocol on Ethernet. Using MIDI AX24 can emulate a Pro Tools PRE, and via EuCon the AX24 can be controlled by the Euphonix 5MC, and MC Pro fader controllers. The sample rate of the AX24 when connected to AVID Pro Tools via the PHD I/O card can be directly controlled by the Pro Tools project sample rate.
